I’m well aware. I’m referencing the minimum iLvl requirement set by Blizzard…
Right it’s somewhere around 359, which is easily acquirable from inferno dungeons.
Which unlike wrath is the same for 10 and 25 man(which is another reason why just dumping 10 man gear into inferno dungeons wouldn’t work the same)
And is ultimately irrelevant to the overall point that it’s simply easier to fill all your slots with entry level gear for firelands just from dungeons than it was in wrath with H+.

What’s 359? Firelands? Again, the minimum gear requirement is different from group to group.
I’m not saying to dump all 10-man gear into these dungeons.
You know there is no min requirement for Firelands? You could probably do firelands at 355 ilvl, which you can easily get to without ever setting foot into an inferno.
I didn’t say Blizzard set a minimum iLvl for Firelands. I said they did for Inferno dungeons.
359 is T11 normal modes which is about what people running the next tier will expect.
It’s almost like the gear requirements scale up based on the previous tier, weird huh…
Because there is no more distinction between 10 and 25 man, so they just put everything on currency which is fine and gives more control over what you get anyways.
Then if you are worried about doing infernos at 346, then don’t do them at 346. The requirement doesn’t mean you have to be at exactly that ilvl. You can go over it.
What’s the gear requirement for raiding BoT 10 Man (N)?
This actually is not true. The cloaks/rings/etc., they’re randomized in terms of stats.
A requirement implies that gearscore/ilvl can complete it.
And I’m sure there has been 346 groups that have already cleared an inferno.
You only worry about stats once you have everything else, you can still buy each slot at least once before having to worry about the stats.
The same as 25 man, most people want 340+.
Yes and they have randomized stats from bosses as well so it’s still less RNG than if the same items were drops in dungeons.
Yeah my guild had a 340 min for the T11 raids.
Really between JP, rep, VP, and ZA/ZG you should be able to get to almost 359 without even touching an inferno dungeon if you want.
But very easily to 346.
WHICH MEANS IT IS A MINIMUM OF 340 FOR RAIDING IN CATACLYSM YOU IDIOT.
I have not heard of one.
That’s not the point. He said it’s easier to control what we get. Which is not true.
It’s alot easier than the alternative, trust me.
Easier than what? Having a couple items drop during the run?
But not for raiding Firelands 
I’m not talking about raiding Firelands, genius.
Which still have RNG stats
If I need Skystrider Belt of the Faultline, I have to hope the right belt even drops let alone the right stats. If it doesn’t drop I have to wait a whole week to try again.
Don’t have to wait a week with the vendor and I know the belt I’m buying is at least the right belt.
Or are you talking about an alternative that doesn’t exist? Because I’m talking about the current systems in place.
Yeah but everyone else is since that’ what infernos are gearing you for.
